Dmx-512 Connection / Connection Between Fixtures; Master/Slave Operation; Connection With The Mains - EuroLite LED BC-7 Beam Effect with Dot Effect Bedienungsanleitung

DMX-512 connection / connection between fixtures

The wires must not come into contact with each other, otherwise
the fixtures will not work at all, or will not work properly.
Please note, the starting address depends upon which controller is being used.
Only use a DMX-cable and 3-pin XLR-plugs and connectors in order to connect the controller with the fixture
or one fixture with another.
Occupation of the XLR-connection:
If you are using controllers with this occupation, you can connect the DMX-output of the controller directly
with the DMX-input of the first fixture in the DMX-chain. If you wish to connect DMX-controllers with other
XLR-outputs, you need to use adapter-cables.
Building a serial DMX-chain:
Connect the DMX-output of the first fixture in the DMX-chain with the DMX-input of the next fixture. Always
connect one output with the input of the next fixture until all fixtures are connected.
Caution: At the last fixture, the DMX-cable has to be terminated. Plug the terminator with a 120 Ω resistor
between Signal (–) and Signal (+) in the DMX-output of the last fixture.

Master/Slave Operation

The master/slave-operation enables that several devices can be synchronized and controlled by one master-
device.
On the rear panel of the LED BC-7 Beam Effect you can find an XLR-jack and an XLR-plug, which can be
used for connecting several devices.
Choose the device which is to control the effects. This device then works as master device and controls all
other slave devices, which are to be connected to the master device via a DMX cable. Connect the DMX
OUT jack with the DMX IN plug of the next device.
Please see further instructions under Operation.

Connection with the mains

Connect the device to the mains with the enclosed power supply cable.
If the device will be directly connected with the local power supply network, a disconnection switch with a
minimum opening of 3 mm at every pole has to be included in the permanent electrical installation.
The device must only be connected with an electric installation carried out in compliance with the IEC
standards. The electric installation must be equipped with a Residual Current Device (RCD) with a maximum
fault current of 30 mA.
Please note: A maximum of 8 LED BC-7 Beam Effect devices may be linked together. After every 8 LED
BC-7 Beam Effect devices, the fixtures must have a renewed connection with the power mains
